Galgo was an Argentinean manufacturer of model cars. The company was founded by brothers Enrique and Roberto Pecareq and released its first models in 1969. In the beginning, a series of sports and racing cars in about 1/64th scale was made from a lead alloy; besides the models developped by Galgo themselves there were also some copies of Matchbox models. From 1977 onwards, Galgo produced diecast models in various scales. In addition to cars in 1/43rd and 1/64th scale, there was notably a series of 1/64th scale Formula 1 racers. Buses in 1/64th scale and trucks in 1/87th scale were also made by Galgo, as well as plastic models in larger scales under the Eurostil name. Production of model cars was stopped in the second half of the 1980s, but some of the bus models were later re-issued by Buby. The company ceased to exist in 1992, their last production facilities made video cassettes.
